Good. This executive action was unconstitutional.

The U.S. Constitution can be so inconvenient sometimes.

Of course it’s dead. The election has passed. It did its job.

The GOP wants uneducated people and the Trump appointed judge confirmed this.

Biden didn't follow the law. Was another empty promise to voters. Saw this coming.

'Biden admin not accepting applications for its [political stunt] student debt relief, casting doubt on program intended to help 40mil.' Should have never had life in 1st place. Pelosi clearly understood this. Has any reporter asked her? LOL MSM colluding to steal the election

Texas, atrium to hell.

You borrow ? You pay it back !Nothing is free

Illegal from the start and Biden knew it. Naked worthless political move and sad for the people that thought they would get relief.

You young voters are so gullible - there is no use for you now the elections are over.

Here’s what’s going on: midterms are over.

POTUS knew all along it would be thrown out by courts. He knew he didn’t have the power to do it but he manipulated young voters

Good, I didn't cosign their loans! So why should my tax dollars pay for loans they signed up for?

'May be' dead🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂 Oh LA Times, wee lamb

Nice timing
